The 65th Anniversary of an Atlanta Beginning

It’s mind boggling how much of Atlanta’s past is linked by a few blocks, in a blighted, mostly forgotten area of south downtown. These blocks seemingly disappeared 50 years ago, erased from civic relevance, spiraling into crime and hopelessness, as forgotten as a Packard, Hudson and Studebaker.

A Devil Went Down to Georgia: Race, Power, Privilege, and the Murder of Lita McClinton by Deb Miller Landau

The 1987 murder of Lita McClinton Sullivan sent shockwaves through the affluent Atlanta suburb of Buckhead. The neighborhood, with its stately mansions and top-tier schools, was not the kind of place where women were gunned down in cold blood in broad daylight. In A Devil Went Down to Georgia, author Deb Miller Landau details the shocking events that followed Lita’s murder in 1987, including the surprising lack of evidence, racial bias in the justice system, and the international manhunt for Lita’s killer. Full of twists and turns, legal battles, and the McClinton family’s unrelenting dedication to justice, Landau's rigorous investigation is the first complete account of this tragic American crime.
